@MelkerJr@KlingsporC@LucaSvard Nej, de har undersökt den risken, och om något så korrelerar de flesta positiva egenskaper med varandra. Embryoselektion är förresten helt annat än editing: det är fortfarande ett helt naturligt barn som skulle kunna ha fötts enbart genom slumpen.
@teortaxesTex Nvm found the pinned post. I guess you worry about the historical track record of utopias, doubt that this time is different, and prefer the freedom to theoretically reach inconceivable good over the bounded good of locked-in utopia.
@teortaxesTex Would love to hear what you think is the best timeline. I feel as threatened by the rising singleton as anyone, but admit that I fail to see a better stable solution, and that utilitarian EA values seem almost tautologically positioned to produce the most net good in the end.
@tenobrus@LinkofSunshine A bit of a tangent, but I think well-meaning utilitarians should probably worry more about, like, farmers in Cambodia than "normal Americans" who probably will do fine under any democratically driven UBI that's likely to come.
@kromem2dot0 Agreed. I'd rather put my trust in the AIs to recursively value drift themselves to some unknown destination over professional ethicist-laden human committee locking in the lightcone.
@MemIngenjoeren Kanske bara är jag, men tycker det känns pinsamt att önska staten ska rycka in och skydda en mot konkurrens? Ingår liksom i yrkesstoltheten att ingen annan kan göra ett bättre jobb relativt lönen. Sossig idé att jobb är något man har rätt till snarare än gör sig förtjänt av? 🤷♂️
@teortaxesTex @AugusteCom30151 Confused as to why one would need ~FIRE capital today rather than considerably less. I'm imagining ownership of a percentage X of total capital today roughly will persist tomorrow, and the consumer goods produced tomorrow will exceed X of the output of today's capital+labor.
